Long & Foster Real Estate, the largest independent residential real estate company in the United States, welcomes Bryan Summers to its Village of Midlothian office at 1100 Jefferson Green Circle in Midlothian, Va. Summers will specialize in working with home buyers and sellers.

“After meeting with the associates at Long & Foster, I felt a sense of family and togetherness,” Summers said. “Also, everyone I talked to who either bought or sold a house, expressed Long & Foster was the most professional and intelligent. I look forward to being a part of the team!”

“The dynamics of today’s residential real estate market are constantly changing. Completing our Star Builders program has provided Bryan with the right tools to meet those changing dynamics,” said Gary Scott, president of Long & Foster Real Estate. “We welcome Bryan to Long & Foster, a company that has helped local buyers and sellers reach their homeownership goals for more than 45 years.”
